Two Ugandans have been detained for allegedly insulting President Yoweri Museveni, the first lady Janet Museveni and the president’s son Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba on the video sharing platform, TikTok.
Magistrate Stella Maris Amabilis remanded 21-year-old David Ssengozi, alias Lucky Choice, and Isaiah Ssekagiri , 28, to Kigo prison until Wednesday when they will make an initial court appearance.
They are accused of hate speech and spreading malicious information against the first family and musicians linked to the governing National Resistance Movement (NRM).
Appearing in court on Monday, the two denied the charges.
